<h3>Answer: B. x = 6</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

Since the vertical lines are parallel, this means the alternate exterior angles shown are congruent.

Set them equal to each other and solve for x.

15(x+2) = 120

15x+30 = 120

15x = 120-30

15x = 90

x = 90/15

x = 6

Or we could have the steps like this

15(x+2) = 120

x+2 = 120/15

x+2 = 8

x = 8-2

x = 6

A parallelogram has sides 17.3 m and 43.4 m long. The height corresponding to the 17.3-m base is 8.7 m. Find the height, to the

Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram has sides 17.3 m and 43.4 m long.

The height corresponding to the 17.3-m base is 8.7 m.

The area of a parallelogram = base × height

= 8.7m × 17.3m

= 150.51m²

Both parallelograms have the same area

Hence, the height, to the nearest tenth of a meter, corresponding to the 43.4-m base is calculated as:

= 150.51m²/43.4m

= 3.4679723502m

Approximately = 3.5m

A leg of a right triangle can never be greater then the hypotenuse

this formula will tell you if it's a valid right triangle
${?}^{2} + {?}^{2} = {?}^{2}$
the first two question marks are the legs of the triangle while the one after the = is the hypotenuse.

THE STEPS:
${3}^{2} + { \sqrt{7}^{2} } = {4}^{2}$
$9 + {2.65}^{2} = 16$
${2.65}^{2} = 7$
$9 + 7 = 16$
ANSWER: $\sqrt{7}$
